What do you all think? Let's talk about it

This picture has nothing to do with the post, but is this not an adorable outfit?!?!? My hair is in four day old twist out.  A close up pic soon to come.  I co-washed with trader joe's tea tree tingle conditioner and used shea butter leave in for the twists.

I was watching Millionaire Matchmaker re-runs recently and saw this scenario.  I am a bit torn on the scenario so I thought I would ask you wonderful people for your opinions, just out of curiosity.  
The millionaire was an ex-football player with a daughter.  Of the women the matchmaker chose he selected a lady who was a single parent.  They had a pretty good first date until...... dramatic pause.......
She told him that she googled him and found that he had been in some trouble for non-payment of child support and that she wanted to hear his side of the story.  He was upset that she brought that up and said that he felt it was none of her business and decided not to see her again.  

I have mixed feelings about the situation.  What do you all think?  Chime in.....




Below are my hump day happinesses :-) 

  1. God woke us up this morning
  2. Getting geared up for work
  3. Pookie got the job
  4. Awesome things happening at work (hopefully getting a neuroscience track in place soon)
  5. Great news from an old professor 
  6. It is beginning to feel like autumn
  7. One of my happier moments was featured on the "discover" section for all to be happy about
  8. My brother came to see me Sunday :-) I love that guy!
  9. I hung christmas lights in my office
  10. Making new friends

Mini twists trial number 457

While I had my mini twists in I wore my hair mostly in updos.  I always enjoy the twists for a little while, but then I miss my hair :-(



Yeah, they're not for me.  That is all.........

For more information as to why I should just STOP putting my hair in mini twists please refer to any of the posts listed below.  This PSA has been brought to you by Lady Shay.  Thank you.
